What to bring with you on your fly fishing excursion with Owen

Thanks for coming prepared for success—

 
  • Polarized glasses brown, copper and amber lenses work best along the Texas coastline.

  • Sunscreen. Days are long and shade is limited.

  • Hat with a dark or black under brim.

  • Ice water will be provided as part of the kick plastic campaign.

  • Lunch can be provided, but is needed nonetheless. Please be sure to specify in advance if you would like lunch provided for your trip.

  • Non-marking shoes, but it is highly recommend to fish shoeless so you can feel if you are standing on your line.

  • Tackle: Capt. Owen has high quality fly fishing gear but feel more than welcome to bring your own. 7-9 weight fly rods are perfect.

  • Flies will be provided, but also feel free to bring your own selection and Capt. Owen can pick one out for any situation.

  • Artificial baits, spin or “baitcast” rods will also be on hand for customers that would like to sight fish, but do not fly fish.

    Note: Full-day trips run 8-10 hours, half-day trips last 4 hours. We will be shallow water fly fishing and sight casting along the Texas coast for redfish, but won't pass up many opportunities to hook drum, trout, flounder or sheepshead.
